Legion Y740 Hackintosh

I managed to install MacOS Mojave on my Legion Y740 , just wanted to make this post to let other people know that it is indeed possible to get pretty much everything working on this laptop.

First off , my build :

CPU : Intel I5 8300H

GPU : Nvidia RTX 2060 (can only use iGPU because there are no web drivers yet , needs patching)

Mainboard : Lenovo something something (will edit once I can identify the mainboard)

RAM : Dual channel DDR4 16GB

Networking : Realtek PCIe GBE (didn't get it to work yet , using Android USB-Tethering)

Soundcard : Realtek ALC298 (inject 3 via Clover Configurator)

Working :

-AppStore

-Audio

-Accessories / Periphals

-Webcam

-iGPU

-FN - Keys

-Internet (USB-tethering with great speed)

-External display

-booting from external hard-drive

etc...

Not working so far :

- dedicated GPU ( no web drivers for RTX graphic cards , will probably take several more months 'til Apple approves the drivers , maybe we'll never see drivers)

- WiFi : Didn't even try to get it working , might need a different network-card , I'm using Android USB-Tethering

- Trackpad : Easy to get the trackpad working , not bothered because I'm using a mouse all the time (Voodoo I2C is your friend , buttons need extra patching)

- Bluetooth : Need a different bluetooth module

- Numpad (because the Y740 doesn't have one lol)

I can post a full installation guide if anyone is interested ; you do NOT need access to a Mac or a VM running Mac , it just makes some steps easier.
